The Sly series is such a PS2 classic; they are still as much fun to play today as the day they came out. And in their new, remastered form, all three titles feature Trophies, wide screen HD running at a smooth frame rate (60 frames per second!) and they are all playable in stereoscopic 3D. You can purchase the Sly Collection for $29.99 or you can buy the individual titles for $9.99 each. Speaking from personal experience, Once you play one, I know you will want to play them all!

So if you have not had a chance to play the new Sly Collection on Blu-ray, or you just want to revisit your favorite boss battle in Sly Cooper and the Thievius Raccoonus or finally complete all those Master Thief Challenges in Sly 3: Honor Among Thieves, then check them out on PSN on the 29th. But no stealing!!

BTW: If you are way ahead of the curve and picked up The Sly Collection on Blu-ray, don’t feel left out — the PlayStation Move-enhanced minigames are still exclusive to that version, so enjoy!

There is no better way to get in some excellent thieving practice in advance of next year’s launch of the fourth installment in the series – Sly Cooper: Thieves in Time (short of breaking and entering your local mob run private art collection). You can learn more about Sly’s next, new for the PS3 adventure in my recent blog post, which shows off Rioichi Cooper, Sly’s playable ancestor in Sly Cooper: Thieves in Time. Rioichi’s ninja mastey will make for some great sneaking techniques, so give him a look and let us know what you think!

Appreciated but about a year late. I’d have rather bought these from PSN but instead got the blu-ray release day one since no PSN release was in sight. :( Great pricing on these by the way.

You know what would be great? If Sony took that PSP App they’re making to allow UMD owners to buy PSN versions of their games at a discount, and made a similiar App for PS3 games. But they won’t. At least I’ll always have my exclusive Sly mini-games lol.

Making all these HD remakes separately downloadable is a really savvy choice, and I appreciate it, because eventually I’ll want to do just that.
I wonder what the odds are of the same thing happening to the Metal Gear Solid compilation. Probably slim since it’s not a Sony studio…

I love this game! got the bluray version, would have loved to get it off PSN if it was out back then….but 3 platniums, and bonus move mini games, its a great value! and this game never gets old! this game will do for now untill Sly 4 next year!

o yea what is up with that Console limt? i have 3 PS3 in my house so this might sux for me but not that big a deal..what if one breaks? then this will sux since i wont be able to activate another ps3..

Missed out on Sly the first time around on the PS2, so I got the collection day 1. Good decision. Some of best games I’ve played. Hoping for a R&C collection soon so I can jump into the series and get caught up.

REMEMBER if you have more than 2 ps3’s this is not the way to go even if all of them have 500+GB hdd your 3rd,4th and 5th ps3 can only play the disc collection because sony decided to give ALL the GOOD boys n girls COAL in their STOCKINGS for doing NOTHING WRONG well EXCEPT supporting sony’s CONNECTED HOME INFINITIVE-IF THEIR WERE A TROPHY REWARD IS WOULD BE A GIANT SUCKER with a symbolic GIANT SUCKER as reinforcement.

Thanks for this launch . . . but please give us more info. I really want to buy the games on the PSN, more than the retail store. So please give us all the titles on the PSN. Don´t matter if they are so simple like Cars 2 or bigger than Battlefield 3 or Uncharted 3, but please give us everything.

I really want Team Ico Collection on the PSN, and many other games. Please!!!

Great games, shame about the pricing. It doesn’t even make sense for a couple reasons. For one you can find this game for $19.99 in stores now, yet $29.99 on PSN? Late release and more expensive. Secondly you can buy each game individually for cheaper than the bundled price.

Sony and MS both have a lot to learn yet when it comes to digital pricing. Steam is embarrassing both platform holders.

Even though i already have ratchet,sly,jack,dmc,mgs etc series games on ps2 they were not made for the HDTV era displays as widescreen was a luxury and the textures,resolution etc were the best SDTV was going to see but with the collections you get,if properly done, HD graphics,trophies,upgraded controls where needed (ratchet before dual analog to all ratchet games receiving it) and up to date online play.

I really wish more obscure less widespread games like ps2’s rouge galaxy and dragon quest would be offered.

How about taking ps one classics and HDing them up to current standards.

hi glen,
you know, i want to become a game-designer, and i would love to be one by sanzaru games.
But i’m still at school and the next university that teaches this kind of design in germany is in stuttgart (i live nearby cologne) and it’s a private university, so it’s really REALLY expensive.
My family and my friends told me that i’m nuts, because “that kind of job isn’t for a girl like me”.
Even if i’m still 14 years old and i still don’t have much experience in those kind of jobs, i love how a simple idea becomes to a sketch and a sketch becomes to a great piece of art later in the game.
I hope you understand me…

oh and by the way, sorry for my mistakes. I’m still working on my English… :)
